Thanks to this forum I was aware of the Contis showing up on the M2s. I told the dealer that I would not take delivery of the car if it had Contis on it and even included that in the paper work. Lo and behold, when the car came in, it has Michelins. Thanks guys!

I like how a lot of people here treat the Continentals like they get a N52 engine instead of the N55. I bet 99 % of the people couldn't even tell the difference if no one told them what tires they got.

I got my delivery today and it came with Continentals. I'm in the same mindset and plan on getting p4s's anyhow. Enjoy the car!

I seriously doubt this is a cost issue. It's a manufacturing issue. The line uses JIT manufacturing and requires multiple suppliers. Otherwise if Michelin were to have a manufacturing/delivery issue, BMW's only choice would be shutdown the line and send everyone home.

M2 LCI week 33 was delivered like 2 weeks ago with Conti. I thought it would bother me more... but the car is so great that I couldn't care less and probably when it will bother me I'll put some Michelins

Funny, my dealer said it's out of their hands. If it comes with Conti's...too bad. Fortunately I got MPSS.

My late production 2017 M2 came with ContiSport 3. They are a decent tire, but they get pretty noisy if you run a few track days on them. They're 90% as good as the MPSS and they are a star spec, after all.
Just some incentive to work them hard and get them off the car to replace with new P4S tires :-) I'm running MPSC2 tires for the track on separate wheels. Last edited by gsrbri; 09-22-2017 at 08:33 AM.. Reason: information |
